Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to scrap the federal government's ban on single-use plastics and bring back plastic straws and disposable grocery bags.
"The Liberals' plastics ban is not about the environment, it's about cost and control," Poilievre said during a campaign stop in Montreal Friday.
"This isn't about science, it's about symbolism," he added. "They are not about saving the planet, they're about punishing all of us to make themselves feel good."
